What to do about ADVAIR.....
I was introduced to Advair 8/02 and like the posts here I have experienced most of all the side effects.Complained to my Pulmonary Doctor and was told that there are no known side effects....Ha
Last Oct (04) I weaned myself off Advair 250/50 and felt terrific-for about 2 months and then I became very weak and stepped up on my Combivent puffs.Had to use 02 24/7 instead of only at night and excertion.Come April when I saw the doctor he said lucky I saw him that day as next week I would have seen him in the hospital. I did agree with him so I went back on Advair. I only take it in the morning.I don't feel I have any nightime problems,so for me one dose is ok. It does help but I would prefer to be on a drug that has no steroid in it..Betwixed & Between..
